Default Word2003: Search ^P [0-9] with Use Wildcards on

Thanks.
The Microsoft online documentation sure isn't helpful or complete.
The escape character ( \ ) isn't documented either, as far as I can tell.
Is there perhaps a Missing Manual?

Hi Peter,

Use the code -- ^13 -- for the paragraph mark: ^13[0-9]

For some stupid reason or another, ^p does not work in wildcard searches.
